Am I the only one who has a feeling that these will suck? I mean, unless Tibalt gets a new card lol.
I hadnt even herd of em...
They just announced it. Daily MTG bro
I think he's saying if they made one
"You know which PW is so awesome he deserves to be featured in a Duel Decks? {Tibalt, the Fiend-Blooded}"
-Nobody ever.
Sigh...

Is anyone going to care about Tibbs post-RtR? Is he suddenly going to be playable in Izzet or Rakdos or something?
Dont get me wrong, I want him for a specific deck of mine, but he ain't exactly lighting up Standard right now.

Doubt it. But ya never know. Only reason I ever buy the duel decks, is for the new art cards.
I would get it for a different art sorin. But why tibalt? I guess no other choice story wise. Garruk and lilly fight each other and Tammy is just chillin. Why did they not make a better walker if they were going to make this duel deck?

I agree. They should have
Made a different walker. Unless RTR is
Going to make him good or something.

Look at picture on bottom:
Tibbles is all "Come at me Bro" lol. Sorin looks like he's gonna chop tibbles head off while shouting "Why couldn't they have put me against a better Planeswalker!" and will go after R&D next
What's hilarious about that pic, is Tibbs' ultimate gives him control of all creatures, but it looks like theyre ALREADY ON HIS SIDE. XD
Sorin's a lonely boy.

That's because sorins such a B.A that he doesn't need anyone or anything but his blade :P
Excactly my point! 😂 Tibbs' ulti is useless.
Tibbs will control all the dudes, then Sorin will just control Tibbs.
Can't help but notice that the duel deck figureheads are never very expensive..

Elspeth v tezzy hit after Elspeth rotated same as ajani and bolas. I believe ajani was a decent price.
I want a throw away mythic planeswalker.

{Tibalt, the Fiend Blooded}. There, you have one
Let's see Tamiyo versus Lilliana of the Dark Realms.. ;)
Cat Fight!!! Duel Decks

Tammy wins.
Well at least we'll get to see how he's supposed to be used. I'm assuming they'll build the deck around him.

I wouldn't throw away a $3 card.
I am quite confused...seems like a weird set. I figured they'd do Liliana vs. Garruk. Who knew that Sorin and Tibalt weren't friendly?
Duel Decks: Izzet vs Golgari is going to heavily overshadow this thing.

Well, they don't want to flood the market with a JtMS that anyone can buy. It would drop the price.
Which sorin do you think it will be though?
Probably lord of innistrad, since that's the one in the picture. Tibalt will probably be the same old tibalt. I wouldn't be surprised if the deck included two copies of tibalt.

"Figured" is past tense.
I hope new sorin art looks more intimidating though, his current is more grim than scary
they already showed the art they're using for it.

Don't be rude Jester, he sad he didn't have time to search!!! God! A little human decency!! I mean, reading the whole 3 page thread is VERY time consuming!
My bad, now I feel really stupid
So a room of people decided this was a good idea and make them money?
How about Sorin vs Tammy? Id buy that waaaaay before i bought one vs Tibbs. And not because of Tammy.
Someone at wizards must just not want to give up on Tibalt yet.
It doesn't seem like a fair fight...tibalt just got his spark. Unless the Tibalt of this set has honed his powers more.
Also, that thinly veiled thing they call a "story"...Sorin wants to conserve people, and Tibalt is wasting them, so they fight? Youch
Good thing we got till march to save up for it 😜😝

I can't imagine why those two would scrap. She seems pretty passive.

Lover's spat? No i could see her revealing to much about his spell and upsetting his presious balance.

I hope they make a new Tibalt. He is a planeswalker after all. Planeswalk over to Ravnica and kick some a$$ you 2 mana fruit cake
Yeah it seems like he has so much potential I personally like him he just needs the proper home :)

I concur. 😌
I have to admit, I really wish I could make a deck that uses him so well, that when he hits the table people scream "OH S### IT'S TIBALT...WE'RE SO F###ING SCREWED!!!!"

Honestly those decks look worth it lol.
Nice. Will be buying this. Im a fan of the duel decks actually. They're good for playing people on an even playing field. Also good for playing someone that knows how to play but doesn't own cards, such as my bandmate.
This one really doesnt seem very good... I like the {Hellrider}, {Lingering Souls}, {Butcher of Malakir} (really like this card for some reason), and of course Sorin. Other than that, it doesn't seem all that great.
Dat {vampire nighthawk} doe.

There's that too lol. Overlooked him for some reason
Hahah he just automatically makes every deck a little bit better.
I think Tibalt would feel right at home in the rakdos, judging by the gleeful expression on his face in that art
{Tibalt, Rakdos Ringleader} lol
There is a huge amount of value in this deck! The Sorin cards alone are pushing 40. Ofcourse value of Sorin will drop a bit but not much.
I only want the pretty new sorin, the other cards I'm going to sell/trade straight away

Well he's at 15 now, but even if he drops he is unlikely to completely bottom out. It took Thragtusk being added to three event decks before he dropped, if I am not mistaking.
Hell probably drop to $5 on the high since he will be reprinted quite a bit with this set.
I'll get just it just to get it. That what normally happens lol
Ok but again the deck is still more than worth the money. That is the point I'm making. Between like three cards you can easily justify the value.

Yea i agree!!! Im buying like 3 of these lol
Sorins cool and worth the value but everything else I would never need and most not worth the value. There are a couple cards that are cool, but I think the money is better spent on things I need :)
Such as foil custom art {storm crow}?

Same here I am tires of throwing money at cards that would be cool to have. I would rather spend the money on cards I need.
$20 for two decks some cards I might find useful in the future. I might as well get one
Kind of excited to see how they design the sorting deck. And meh Tibalt.
How many people are really excited about these? I read about them on the MTG website and they honestly sounded pretty cool.
Sorin is about 20$
So yeah.....

I am because it creates a leveled playing field for playing against people who casually play but don't have decks or for teaching people.
It's a good value. You get a {Sorin, Lord of Innistrad} and a {Hellrider} plus some other stuff.
I really wish I could work out some sort of deal with wotc so the alternate art foil in Tib's deck would be the Hellrider instead of Tibalt himself. I would so much rather have that.
Tomorrow is the release date for these and I'm not gonna lie, I'm pretty excited to get these.

Ah snap, you're right. Good call man.
I was hoping you we're right. I was getting excited.
How many sets are people gonna buy?
I will buy maybe 2 when it comes out. One to break down and one to play with. May get another set later if the mood hits.
Most likely just get one. I'll play them a few times then put them away in a binder.
